Passwords and MFA aren’t going away anytime soon. That no doubt will gain much traction in the future, legacy systems with Passwordless, biometric concept of Windows Hello, and while this is something Microsoft seem hell-bent on pushing through the Lot of requests to extend the Microsoft Authenticator service onto WindowsĬonsole logons and RDP logons, and since MS have sunset the on-premises MFA The way Microsoft recommend to do it was by using Windows Hello, but within a few minutes of reading the literature around it, it was clear that there was a *lot* of work required to get Windows Hello up and running – and it wasn’t exactly fully foolproof either. Rather naively, I assumed that you would be able to do this simply using the Microsoft Authenticator service directly, but I was surprised to find that this functionality wasn’t offered. So I recently had a challenge where I needed to add 2FA (specifically, using the Microsoft Authenticator service) to a Windows 10 logon for a particular set of users. The feature may eventually become available on Windows 10 Mobile in the future, Simons said.Need a quick and easy 2FA setup for Windows and RDP logons? This might help… Those who have iPhones with Touch ID will also be able to approve the request by using the fingerprint reader. With the new update, users simply have to unlock their phone and press an “approve” notification on their phone to log into their account. In the past, Microsoft Authenticator mimicked Google Authenticator by providing one-time codes used in two-factor authentication sign-in. “The process is easier than standard two-step verification and significantly more secure only a password, which can be forgotten, phished or compromised,” said Alex Simons, director of program management at Microsoft’s Identity Division. Users will now be able to see an option on the sign-in page to connect Authenticator with their Microsoft account, which has now been made more convenient than ever, cutting down on time spent typing out passwords or trying to recall which password you changed it to last month. Tired of dealing with annoying passwords as you try to access your Microsoft accounts on various devices? Microsoft has a solution with its latest update to its Authenticator app for iOS and Android which allows you to access your accounts with no password at all.
